GENESI
Large Scale Thermoplastic Additive Manufacturing
Genesi is Breton's 3D Printer for Large-Scale Production of Thermoplastic Materials
Starting from the analysis of extrusion processes, Breton has developed a wide range of machining centers to exploit the potential of 'Large Scale Additive Manufacturing' on thermoplastic materials.

MACHINE LEARNING AND ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE
It uses machine learning algorithms and advanced artificial intelligence systems to achieve high-level mechanical and aesthetic properties innovating and evolving 3D printing.
GIANT IN DIMENSIONS
"Giant" in dimensions, Genesi is one of the world's largest 3D printers for prototyping (3 metres in height, up to 5 metres in width and length on request) with a deposition capacity up to 200 kg per hour of reinforced thermoplastic materials.
COMBINATION OF ADDITIVE AND SUBTRACTIVE SYSTEMS
Genesi can operate either in a purely additive version or in combination with a subtractive system. This second solution overcomes the limits of the pure additive method, which allows the production of near net shape parts that are close to the final shape but not completely finished.
